An organization credential is a user name and password authentication token that is bound to a particular organizational identity. Use Organization Credentials to add an organization credential.
About this task
Each organization must have organization credentials that
allow partners to authenticate to your system to pull messages. An
organization can be reused by exchange profiles, receiver endpoints,
and destination endpoints. Each set of organization credentials is
uniquely named so they are easily differentiated. You can also optionally
include a description for each set of credentials.

organization credentials. You must also create an organization before you add
credentials for it.
